The Apprentice...

21:38 OMFG! WHAT TRAINERS WOULD LOOK LIKE IF KATIE DESIGNED THEM!
21:41 Hmmm. Do you think Katie is going?
21:46 Ghazal isn't going to take her in, is she?
21:50 Oh well, Ghazal has more sense than I thought. I still think she'll go and not Katie unless she really plays up that Katie is a backstabbing bitch.
21:57 Ghazal didn't take the opportunity offered to her. She deserved to go.

I really wish I didn't feel quite so ill because their was loads of quality mocking that could be done.

I'm sure Ghazal just said, "communimikating"

I've reached new horrors in watching the Apprentice.

I... I sympathised with Tre. The shame!

Deary me.

He has grown on me but his arrogance grates sometimes. You could tell he was panicking all the way through that task.

I had a question about last weeks debacle, I get to watch the repeats on Tuesday as Wednesday night is belly dancing night, of course.

Last week, when they were looking for all those deals and had such trouble finding Nigella Seeds, surely one of them had a Blackberry or the like? Google is your friend. Ditto Yell.com. Or did I miss something and they weren't allowed to use the web?

I thought that too, that a quick Google search would have sorted it for them easily, but I was told afterwards that one of the rules was they weren't allowed to use the internet for research, only the Yellow Pages.

That's probably my biggest criticism of the series this year. The BBC don't do a good enough job of letting the viewer know what the rules are.

Yes, all the way through that task I kept thinking: 'Oh GOD, just text AQA!'

Of course now people think it is funny to text AQA and ask them what Nigella seeds and where they can be purchased. I think they are trying to make some sort of point. ;)

I had similar thoughts with the sweet making task, where one team wasted 4 hours when two people had to take lolly sticks from London to Chichester and then come back to sort out props for their stall.

It would have been far better timewise, and made better sense to get a company to bike the stuff down.

And last week I just thought 'who uses Yellow Pages books' these days.


Trouble is the rules aren't explained, so the viewer ends up thinking that they are all too stupid to use the internet on their phones to look up Nigella seeds.

Well, if they hadn't been Completely Fucking Ignorant, they'd have known what nigella seeds are, and besides, how hard can it be to check in a grocery store?

That look Tre had on his face made me laugh...and when is that cow [Katie] going to get the chop!
